    I hope that if I’m ever in the papers for abandoning my morals, my oaths, and all dignity in egregiously stupid ways, that my wonton and clear law-breaking is characterized as defiance.

    “Oh, no, your honor, I wasn’t breaking all those laws! I was defying them!”

      I hope if I’m ever in the papers for defying the law, abandoning my morals and doing some that will be remembered with scorn through all of history, it will be for something like assassinating someone I learn from a time traveler will become the next genocidal scourge to humanity.

      Not, you know… helping a kid rapist get away with raping kids.
